Calling more attention to @Arduino_Sentinel 's comment

Sounds like you installed Python by running make, right ? In that case I'd recommend installing libssl-dev and rebuilding+reinstalling Python

On a fresh debian installation, I had installed Python 3.6 via

wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.6.3/Python-3.6.3.tgz
tar xvf Python-3.6.3.tgz
cd Python-3.6.3
./configure
make
make altinstall

creating a virtualenv with virtualenv -p python3.6 env and subsequently trying to install anything with env/bin/pip would produce the errors from the question.

The comment quoted above solved the issue on my server.

The main problem is you compiling python before install the libssl.
